2-0-1-2! Happy New Year!

Turn it up .. Turn It Up.. Mash it up
We gonna party like
Party like it’s the end of the world
We gonna party like, like it’s 2012
You know that it doesn’t matter as long as we got each other

Turn it up.. Turn it up .. Mash it up
It ain’t the end of the world

We celebrated 2012 by playing 2012 by Jay Sean Ft. Nicki Minaj! Happy New Year everyone!

I am happy to say that our 2011 was way better than 2010. Of course there were a lot of struggles and problems along the way but we were so blessed by God that the bad things seem so minute already. 🙂 I am very much looking forward to a better, healthier, and more awesome 2012!

We had a very simple celebration today. No more grand fireworks. No more elaborate preparations… After all, the most important thing is that we are celebrating the coming of the new year with our family. Live simply so that others may simply live.

Here are some snapshots taken last night. Enjoy!

Tiki and her self-made niche

All dogs are afraid of the noise from the fireworks. Thus, they were all placed inside the house. Our dachshund Tikiwiki has a special place in the girls’ room, being pregnant and the favorite as well. She is such a smart dog that she made her own bed from the small pillows that we have.

Love for New Year

While everyone’s wearing polka dots, I wore a lot of hearts. 🙂 Cheers to a year filled with love! Loving people are very peaceful. Agree? So if we want world peace, let’s go for love for all mankind first. 🙂

Mikey wasn’t around because he had to go to work. 😦

Food!

Like during Christmas, Mama prepared everything. I was making myself well from having allergies so I slept pretty much the whole afternoon. My mom really deserves an award for being the best mom! 🙂 She’s working so hard already during workdays and at home she still prepares good food for us. 🙂 Mama prepared sandwiches with ham, cheese, and grape jelly. (It’s a weird combination but it’s tasty.) Then, she also prepared pancit (for long life), potato salad, mushroom soup, and buko pandan. 🙂 Very simple but fills not just our stomachs but also our hearts. 🙂
